Responded to a shed fire on Highway 36 with fire exposure to the residence Saturday evening. When the first crews arrived, they found the shed fully involved and the main residence fifty percent involved. All occupants made it out safely but the shed and the structure where lost. On scene were personnel and equipment from Cal Fire, Bridgeville Fire, Carlotta Fire and Fortuna Fire. A neighbor helped by taking them in until they could get resettled. Big thanks to all that helped out and to their neighbor.

Helluva scene a wreck & a fire both more or less at the same time as each other!!! According to what was published in LoCO the wreck was over the bank, barely visible from the road, so it took some doing to get to it!!!! Great job Bridgeville Volunteer Fire Dept!!! Thanx for the pix Sarah good shooting, indeed!!!
Good job also to Carlotta VFD who had to handle the house fire while Bridgeville Fire was busy with the wreck!!!
